I always wondered why there was no progress bar component for wicket. The UploadProgressBar is cool but only for file uploads and not designed for background tasks or long taking actions.
So some time ago I wrote a progress bar component to have an easy to use a component for progress display of some task with AJAX updates. I recently published this as the "wicketstuff-progressbar" project. Since starting new threads in a page is not what you generally want to do, I added a module "wicketstuff-progressbar-spring" that has a simple task service implementation to let "the action" run in the service layer (name could be misleading, cause it's not coupled with spring, but spring has this nice feature called session scope). Just see the wiki (http://wicketstuff.org/confluence/display/STUFFWIKI/wicketstuff-progressbar) for a short description and the examples module for some example code. Since this is still work in progress I appreciate your comments or contribution!
